The Fallout Overhaul Kit (FOOK), is a customized compilation of user modifications, gameplay balancing changes, and original content designed for the PC game Fallout 3 by Bethesda Game Studios.
The second installment of FOOK. This edition is designed to go beyond what FOOK had started. Including better weapons, armor, items, and an overall rework of the system from the ground up. FOOK2 and FOOK are different in that FOOK2 is a revamp and reproduction of everything that wasn't fixed in the original FOOK. The newer development was designed around better ergonomics between mods and compatibility to reduce bugs and overall conflict among some of the most popular pieces of work to date. What started off as nothing more than a compilation of previous mods and material turned into a completely new development. FOOK2 redesigns the wasteland in better flow with the fallout universe and tries to fill in the gaps that Bethesda left behind.

Let's start with the most important info: Patch v1.1 is now available and can be downloaded here. We got an amazing amount of feedback, bug reports and support and we want to thank everyone who was part of this.

Let's start with the most important info: Patch v1.1 is now available and can be downloaded here. We got an amazing amount of feedback, bug reports and support and we want to thank everyone who was part of this.

We tried to fix as much as possible in the time we had but many things are of course still work in progress and will need further work.

I hope you have a bit of patience with us and understand that these things need their time.

Now having said all this, here is our Patch v1.1 change log:

FOOK:
- Scrap Metal added to the Repair Lists which didn't have it.
- All the big Sniper Rifles are now correctled Big Guns (Barrets, BOZAR, AW-50).
- MP5A2 anim fixed (thanks to Simpson).
- AR10 sound fixed (thanks to Simpson).
- Brahmin dairy products will now restore radiations rather than damaging it. Also, Punga fruits were buffed a little to in line with that change.
- All the Vendors inventories of the world are re-done (thanks to Shadowborn).
- All the ammunitions of the world were checked and moved a little if needed to looks good with the new clip models (thanks to Shadowborn). The same will soon be done for the DLC. 10mm and 308 are already done in DIK.
- Added a new ISFX when wearing a riot helmet (Vault 101 and Rivet City). Thanks to Atikabubu.
- Shell Rains mod removed for testing. We'll see how people reacts. This mod is cool and a good idea, but sometimes cool don't means good in-game, and a lot of people report massive lags when there's a firefight involving a lot of Miniguns.
